如何将Mendix连接到SQL Server？

Question

I'm just learning how to use Mendix and I'm running into a problem. I have a database that holds things such as Landing Zones, County, and Helicopter information. I can't seem to figure out how to connect my SQL Server database to the application. Any ideas?

Answer 1

If you want to get data from another database, you will have to use appservices or webservices.

Alternatively, you can connect your application to your MSSQL Database Settings -> Profile

Create entities in your domainmodel for the data, and import your data into the table using the sql tool of your preference ( SQL Express )

This will work for static data. If the data is dynamic, you will need webservices

Read more on how to import or publish a webservice

And here on consuming one

If the data are in another mendix application, you might need to consume a published appservice to do it.

Finally, you might get more feedback on the Mendix forum
